Python Added Object to Dict

Question

I have a JSON object that I want to add to an existing JSON Ojbect. When I add the object, it is added to bottom of the JSON, even though, the code added the new object first.

Here is an example of the JSON...

{
    "Header": {
        "ID": "Bob",
        "Description": "Description header_dict"
    },
    "Body": {
        "ItemInvolvesShortfall": {
            "SpecifiedBy": {
                "category": "Fibre To The Node",
                "version": "1.2.0",
                "type": "Shortfall Specification",
                "ID": "FTTN Shortfall"
            },
            "DescribedBy": {
                "Characteristic": {
                    "type": "Automatically fulfillable",
                    "ID": "pillar-patch"
                },
                "value": "Yes"
            }
        },
        "ID": "Bob",
        "Description": "Description body_dict"
    }
}

This is what I want the JSON to look like. ID and Description should be before ItemInvolvesShortfall.

….
"Body": {
        "ID": "Bob",
        "Description": "Description body_dict",
"ItemInvolvesShortfall": {
            "SpecifiedBy": {
                "category": "Fibre To The Node",
                "version": "1.2.0",
                "type": "Shortfall Specification",
                "ID": "FTTN Shortfall"
            },
            "DescribedBy": {
                "Characteristic": {
                    "type": "Automatically fulfillable",
                    "ID": "pillar-patch"
                },
                "value": "Yes"
            }
        }
    }

This is the code snippet.

#!/usr/bin/env python
import json
import objectpath
import collections
#READ JSON OFF DISK
data = json.loads(open("/Users/AAAAAAAAAA/Documents/Python/Tuples/json/FTTN.json").read())
json_tree = objectpath.Tree(data['ManageTicketOfWorkRequest'])
#LOOK FOR A JSON OBJECT - ItemInvolvesShortfall
result = tuple(json_tree.execute('$..ItemInvolvesShortfall'))
new_dict=collections.OrderedDict()
header_dict={}
body_dict=collections.OrderedDict()

# CREATE HEADER   
header_dict["Header"]={
    "ID":"Bob",
    "Description":"Description header_dict" }

# CREATE BODY        
body_dict={"Body":{
    "ID":"Bob",
    "Description":"Description body_dict" }
    }

#ADD BODY INTO NEW DICTIONARY
new_dict.update(header_dict)
for i in result:

    #ADD THE ITEMINVOLVESSHORTFALL INTO BODY. THE ID & DESCRIPTION 
    #WHICH IS FIRST, NOT BE PUSH BACK. SHOULD I USE A POP OR POP_LEFT 
    #OR USE A APPEND OR APPEND_LEFT
    body_dict["Body"]["ItemInvolvesShortfall"]=i
    print('INFO:04 ', a)
    print(body_dict)

new_dict.update(body_dict)
print(" ", body_dict)
print("INFO05: ", body_dict)
new_dict.update(body_dict)
print("INFO06: ", new_dict)
